Consumer Behavior in Financial Markets 2020 “Leveraging Overconfidence” Brad M. Barber (Graduate School of Management UC) Davis Xing Huang. Discussant: Yigitcan Karabulut

Psychologists and economists have studied overconfidence for many years. It is perhaps the most well-established bias towards which human judgement is vulnerable. Overconfidence can influence behavioural choices in profound ways. Theoretically, researchers know that overconfident investors' are likely to trade too aggressively, diversify less and perform worse. Listen to speaker Xing Huang present the main findings from their paper and how overconfidence relates to margin investors, followed by discussant Yigitcan Karabulut.
